Ripple.js is a tiny JavaScript library for building reactive views with data-binding and a plugin-based architecture. It composes views without globals, offering an API similar to Reactive with React-like composition.

Use cases

• build reactive UI components with two-way data binding
• compose small views without a heavy framework
• render templates that update the DOM automatically when data changes
• extend a minimal view library with custom plugins
• build simple interactive widgets like counters or like buttons

When to choose

• you want a tiny, dependency-free reactive view layer for a legacy browser project (IE9+)
• you prefer plugin-based composition over a full framework
• you're maintaining an existing codebase already built on ripple or the component ecosystem

When to avoid

• you're starting a new project - the library is unmaintained with no releases since 2014 and no license file
• you need modern tooling, TypeScript support, or an active community
• you need a full-featured framework with routing, state management, and build integration
